Abstract

In security markets, how to achieve optimal allocation of asset has become the focus of investors. The mean-variance model is a method to achieve revenue maximization and risk minimization on investing stock portfolio. This paper will research on investment problem in Shanghai Stock Exchange. It involves research result about mean variance model since 1952. To take the experiment, 10 stocks are chosen from Shanghai Stock Exchange. Organizing rates of return for 360 days and using the average daily rate of return as the expected rate of return. Applying mean variance model, selecting data, the curve of frontier portfolio is obtained by experiment. Based on the result, the investment advice is given. It shows that higher expected rate of return accompanies by higher risk. To achieve higher returns, investor could analyse the variation of each asset along with the rise of the expected rate of change. When negative weight appears, there exists short selling. If short selling is not allowed, investor could shrink the interval of the expected rate of return.
